Tutorial: 3D photo album, FIVe3D and TweenLite

Recently I wrote a tutorial for The Tech Labs, and it has been published yesterday.

It is a tutorial which shows how to build a simple 3d photo album using the FIVe3D and TweenLite libraries. You can read it here. I hope you'll will find it useful!

The Tech Labs is a website recently started by Carlos Pinho. It "is intended to be a tool to contribute for the research, information and knowledge for the IT professionals as also for the non-techies." Be sure to check it out. There's already a few good tutorials in there and new stuff is coming every week.

Carlos also runs the Flash Enabled blog, which features cool stuff from all over the web. You will find there plenty of links to resources ranging from Photoshop tips, to Actionscript and Flash/Flex tutorials. It is a great source of information, so be sure to visit!

hi Bartek.

this is so great.. hope you have time to help with this small issue.
I’ve created a 4×3 picturegrid, but I have really no idea on how to center it on stage.
check out the result so far;

it’s like it’s moved to far to the right.
what line(s) of code do I need to tweak to move it to the left?

an answer here or as an email would be fantastic.
thanks!

I have a problem with the gallery.

Let’s say I don’t change a thing in the script of the gallery. It works perfectly fine. So I try to insert the gallery into my website. I load it with Loader class from the code inside my web as an external swf file. Paths are ok. Targeting is ok.

The gallery does not work, instead an error shows up: “Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at Main()”

I read that this means I am pointing to something that’s not there. How come? I have not changed a thing and the gallery works just fine on its own. What’s going on ?
